080313 Gilmanton Old Home Day Church Service set for August 4 (143)

GILMANTON — In conjunction with the Gilmanton Old Home Day Association, the First Congregational Society in Gilmanton will hold its Old Home Day service on Sunday August 4, at 4 p.m. at the Smith Meeting House.

The First Congregational Society is the oldest organized society in the town of Gilmanton. Nestled in rows of maple trees with lush green lawns and a flowering garden, the Smith Meeting House is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Old Home Day service is a long held tradition where we remember those who have gone before us. The sermon for this nondenominational service is always of interesting subject matter. After the service, refreshments will be served in the meeting room downstairs which is naturally air conditioned.

The Reverend Sidney Lovett of Holderness, will officiate and Harriet Coupal will be the organist. For more information call 603-267-8151.
